DUI checkpoints planned in York County

The event is part of the Center for Traffic Safety's efforts to curb DUI and underage drinking.

The checkpoint will operate sometime between 6 p.m. Friday and 6 p.m. Sunday at an undisclosed location.

This and other operations are funded with federal grant money provided by the state Department of Transportation and used for sections of roads with high incidences of impaired drivers found in crashes and arrests, according to a news release from the center.

Meanwhile, Pennsylvania State Police in York County have also said that they will be conducting sobriety checkpoints this month.

"The goal of the checkpoint is to deter drivers who are drinking or using drugs/prescriptions from getting behind the wheel and placing other motorists at risk," according to a state police news release.

State police, along with several municipal police departments and the Pennsylvania DUI Association, will conduct the checkpoints.
